First minister asks public to keep festive celebrations ‘as small as your family circumstances allow’
Scots should limit their indoor social mixing to no more than three households over the festive season, but family Christmas celebrations can go ahead, Nicola Sturgeon has said.
Emphasising that nobody should cancel their Christmas Day plans, Scotland’s first minister urged people to cut down social contacts “as much as possible” over the coming weeks in an attempt to slow the spread of the Omicron variant while the vaccine booster programme accelerates across the country.
